From a sweeping view of the Grand Canyon, printed across two pages for a 23 x 11 1/2-inch panorama, to a super close-up study of an Argus pheasant's tail feathers—or a wave tumbling tiny shells—German photographer Mara Fuhrmann gives us extraordinary portraits of earth and water, plants and animals. Sandstone walls, a slope of winter trees, a hedgehog's quills, and the veins of a leaf become striking abstract patterns in Fuhrmann's lens, while views of California poppies, a polar bear family, a dramatic Icelandic waterfall, and the stares of several owls testify to her lifelong love of wild creatures and places.
